Protocol Infrastructure and Deployment Pipeline

In order to ensure maximum safety and transparency for Seneca's ecosystem, steps have been taken and will further take place for the protocol infrastructure.

Through careful assessment in collaboration with advisors, independent security experts, and partner protocols, a revised deployment pipeline has been planned, consisting of additional security reviews and measures for the protocol.

Peer review and independent consultations are taking place, and they’ll keep going until full protocol deployment. The goal is to not only deploy a more comprehensive, safer, and more optimized CDP infrastructure but also ensure maximum adherence to DeFi best practices and broader industry standards.

CDP infrastructure is based on Kashi from Sushi. Final deployment will take account of all necessary security measures, as well as addressing lingering minor flaws and optimizations that have not yet been taken into consideration within Kashi or protocols that are forks of it.

Staking Deployment

To account for the protocol pipeline update, the staking component is being released in advance. sSEN goes live today, Monday, November 20th. Holders will be able to stake their SEN tokens to earn rewards in WETH from trading tax distribution. The distribution fully accounts for trading taxes already accrued.

Staking undergoes a 24-hour lockup. It is possible to claim WETH on a daily basis, starting from the day after staking component deployment. The rewards stream will be managed to ensure uniformity and consistency of rewards while still prioritizing an attractive enough distribution in the short term to better align with pipeline expectations.

sSEN goes live as fully compatible with protocol fee redistribution. After CDP infrastructure deployment, sSEN will start to increase in ratio. Interest, opening, and liquidation fees are converted into SEN and added to the staking contract. Each sSEN receipt redeems an increasingly larger amount of SEN tokens.

The accrual above is independent of trading tax redistribution. CDP fees directly grow sSEN redemption ratio, while WETH rewards require direct claiming.

What Is Coming

Seneca is committed to creating a robust and secure ecosystem for its users.

Collateral integration announcements and more CDP infrastructure details will be published in the following days.
